If the media had dug deeper at the time and gained access to more bus passengers rather than rub their hands together with glee at the report of someone 'not white' on the bus fiddling with a bag [like just about everyone does on public transport!], then this man's testimony would not have been given any more credibility than someone who was actually on the bus at the time. <br /><br />Quite how only two main witnesses have been referenced and 'quoted' by the MPS and the media when there was a busload of people has never ceased to amaze me...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-350827144131011460.post-46822476036129002352011-01-15T21:39:29.202+00:002011-01-15T21:39:29.202+00:00Richard Jones has been crossexamined .

Yes, and at that stage it was identified that there was<br />21 a power out, a power outage, that's the excuse that they<br />22 gave at that time.<br />10<br /><br />1 A. Yes, the Waterloo and City Line was suspended due to<br />2 power outage, and I then took an alternative route to<br />3 the Northern Line and was intending to go to Euston and<br />4 then get the City branch back down from the<br />5 Northern Line to the Angel where I was working.<br /><br />He said he reached Euston, was evacuated and took to the buses, walking back to Euston Square to get on the 30 bus one stop before it reached Euston and the crowd, <br /><br />Jones was specifically questioned about the man he saw, :<br /><br /> 8 Q. Now, Mr Jones, there's been some speculation about the<br />9 identity of that man, man A, and whether or not he was<br />10 connected to the bomber who was undoubtedly on the upper<br />11 deck of the bus, the number 30 bus, as it went<br />12 southbound, so I want to ask you, please, about what you<br />13 can recollect of that person, in order that we can<br />14 dispel any lingering concerns about whether or not he<br />15 was connected.<br />16 A. Okay. .....<br />11 Q. I'm going to ask you a little bit more, thank you very<br />12 much, about his appearance and description to see<br />13 whether or not we can exclude him from any connection to<br />14 the bomber, Hussain?<br />15 A. Okay....<br />22 A. No, there was no --<br />23 Q. -- or any kind of facial growth that you could see?<br />24 A. Yes.<br />25 Q. My Lady, Hussain had, of course, a short beard, some<br /><br />17<br /><br />1 growth, on his chin, as evidenced by the post-mortem<br />2 report.<br /><br />16 Q. But I hope we've established, Mr Jones, that there<br />17 appears to be no connection with the bomber and nor that<br />18 that particular gentleman was doing anything other than<br />19 acting as an ordinary member of the public, a passenger<br />20 on the bus?<br />21 A. Correct.<br />22 Q. But your statement, I'm afraid, has been open to<br />23 conjecture and surmise in the way of these things in the<br />24 public domain.<br />25 A. Yes, I know.<br /><br />Richard Jones also gave evidence about the journey of the bus from Euston to Tavistock Square, and was within thirty yards of the bus when it blew up, so was witness to the scene immediately after the explosionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-350827144131011460.post-72952983211933975932011-01-10T17:28:15.311+00:002011-01-10T17:28:15.311+00:00Anonymous said 'so why bother with his testino...Anonymous said <i>'so why bother with his testinony'</i>?<br /><br />Because, apart from Danny Biddle whose testimony J7 examined <a href="http://77inquests.blogspot.com/2010/11/77-inquests-danny-biddle-rucksack-on.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>, Richard Jones is apparently the only other witness to be referenced in the government's official narrative.Bridgethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04220942517267393608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-350827144131011460.post-516721546752050082011-01-10T16:57:31.226+00:002011-01-10T16:57:31.226+00:00This man's testimony is a joke...not that he d...This man's testimony is a joke...not that he didn't see someone fiddling with a bag, but not a bomber, so why bother with his testimony?
